Questions & Answers about ¿Tú bailas en la fiesta?

Why do we see tú in front of bailas even though Spanish rarely requires the subject pronoun?

Spanish verbs usually show who is acting because each verb form matches a particular subject (for instance, bailas is the form for tú). However, including tú can add emphasis or clarity—like boldly asking "You dance at the party?" instead of a more general "Do you dance at the party?"

Why is the verb form bailas instead of baila or bailan?

In Latin American Spanish, bailas is the present tense conjugation of the verb bailar for the second-person singular informal subject, tú.
• baila is used with él, ella, or usted (formal),
• bailan is used with ellos, ellas, or ustedes.

Can you leave out tú when saying this sentence?

Yes, you can. Spanish often omits subject pronouns because the verb form already indicates who is doing the action. So, ¿Bailas en la fiesta? is also perfectly correct and means the same thing.

Does en la fiesta strictly mean at the party, or could it also mean to the party?

In this context, en la fiesta translates to at the party. If you wanted to say to the party, you would typically use a la fiesta, as in Voy a la fiesta (I’m going to the party).
